How to do the spit test (taken from thewholejourney.com)

“It’s as simple as this: For six days in a row, when you wake up in the morning, fill a glass halfway with room-temperature water (before you brush your teeth or eat or drink anything). Next, work up a dime-sized amount of saliva and spit it into the glass. Check it three times over the course of forty-five minutes to see if your saliva sinks to the bottom, stays floating on top, or if it grows legs, little spindly tails that reach down the glass. If it sinks or grows legs, then you can suspect that yeast is overgrowing in your system. Don’t be freaked out, it happens to so many of us these days, and there is a way to cleanse from it permanently.”

4. How to treat & What to eat (41:50)

We always recommend working with a practitioner to verify you have candida and help you find a protocol that works well for you!

You will want to stop the yeast overgrowth, build up the friendly bacteria in your gut and heal your gut!

o Christa Orecchio - Kick Candida for Good Program
